No I seen them before and I ask were they bought the height adjusters and I can remember the name of the place but I remember they said that they were located in Florida.
And it's a spring with a right adjuster on bottom of it kind like a adj coil over set up but with out the shock in the middle..

Thanks for the plug although Our kits are front only. We have looked into the rear setups. Currently we do not see how to improve on the ISC parts. They work perfectly for the application and are priced well. We will not be developing rear kits anytime in the near future. Call Mike. Great Guy.

I would recommend getting the ReSpeed Coilovers for the front and the ISC Racing spring adjusters for the rear. I just got back from a track day with this setup and took down some cars pretty easily that I thought I would have had a harder time with.
That includes a coilover'd miata on azenis pushing 125rwhp. I am running BFG-Gforce tires and probably have similar Rwhp.
Besides Billy has the best customer service I have ever experienced.

With those rear adjusters, I guess I'm not clear on how they are supposed to work. It seems that you would only be able to raise the ride height, unless you shortened the springs. Is that correct?

mattp is correct.
My rears are adjusted half way up and my tires sit flush with the fender lip. No gap and no rubbing issues with 205/50/17's even on the race track.
The fronts rub a little but I can just adjust them up a bit.

Does ISC sell the springs that fit? Can I select the spring rates upon purchase?
Also, I just emailed ISC and they said they sold their last pair yesterday. I am currently enquiring when they will get more. I will keep you all posted.
***********************************************
EDIT:
This was just sent to me by an ISC represenitive.
"We will not be getting any more. We are no longer carrying or working on the 1st gen stuff, we have moved on to mostly Miata and a few 2nd gens but not a lot of them."
************************************************
Bummer.......
Well Billy, looks like there could be a market for this product now. I would definatly be interested. Anyone else?
Thanks

Eibach rear springs with the deadcoils should work just fine, just cut off the dead coils and use the adjuster for height tuning.
I cut off 2 deadcoils for my ride height, the adjusters would refine that even further.
***note** Eibach 200# spring on the left, Racing beat spring on the right.
A single coil cut off laying in front, ended up cutting a second.

We will pick up where we left off on the rear springs and adjusters.

The springs for the ISC adjusters are blue coil springs from Suspension Spring Specialists. You can get tons of different weights and lenghts. The rear adjusters use pretty much standard 5 inch O.D. springs with one flat end and the other end just "cut" off. This end fits on the lower spring seats that our axles require. The springs come that way. I have some on my project and they are great quality, so are the spring adjusters.

What version of the rear shocks does ISC use? Going that low in the rear usually bottoms out pretty bad, even with the bump stop cut. The idea looks great, I just don't wanna keep replacing blown rear shocks.
